Francis Towne

A painting of a waterfall between two mountains. The waterfall descends the side of a large rocky mountain on the right. The water flows down over multiple rocky ledges and into a river at the bottom. The river flows from the bottom center to the lower left. The riverbank on the left appears dry and brown. There are trees along the right riverbank and on top of the mountain. There are people and a horse on the left riverbank. There are more mountains in the background under a blue and cloudy sky. The painting has a beige border.
